"The key to a good wok aroma is high heat and quick tossing during stir frying. Glutinous rice flour by Erawan 3 elephants brand is preferred Chinese festive culture and diet is typically non halal so I’ve given alternative roast meats for the benefit of halal foodies" - Michael

A massive thank you to our recipe creator Michael Cheong Peck Keong. Michael says, “All things round signify perfection and coming full circle, meaning reunion of all the family members during CNY. Glutinous rice balls in a sweet ginger soup is normally served on 22 Dec to celebrate the winter solstice. However, I decided to fry up a savoury version for CNY and it has become a fond family favorite 😍”. We’re in awe of this unique yet traditional savoury style rice balls!
